About Spacelords

Spacelords is a free‑to‑play sci‑fi shooter that centers on a 4 vs 1 campaign. Players can fight as the four Raiders defending the Broken Planet or as the single Antagonist invading the same world, experiencing both narrative sides.

The game also offers online co‑op and PvP, cross‑platform multiplayer, full controller support, and a large amount of visual content, including over 80 cinematic scenes that illustrate the story.

01 / THE GUIDE

4 vs 1 Campaign

The core mode matches four Raider players against one Antagonist player. Each side follows its own mission objectives, allowing the same map to be played from two opposite perspectives.

Both perspectives are fully playable and the campaign can be completed without any purchase, as the title is described as completely free to play.

  • Try each side to see how objectives differ.
  • Notice how the single‑player role changes the pacing of encounters.

02 / THE GUIDE

Character Selection

Spacelords provides exactly 17 characters that players can select from. These characters belong to either the Raiders or the Antagonist faction and each has a distinct visual design.

Cards are used to customize your chosen character, influencing how the player approaches combat and objectives in both solo and multiplayer matches.

  • Swap characters between matches to explore different visual styles.
  • Observe which cards are available for each character.

  • Experiment with different parameter combinations on a single weapon.
  • Create contrasting card loadouts to see how they affect play.

Cinematic Scenes

The title includes more than 80 cinematic sequences that are presented throughout the Raiders and Antagonist campaigns. These scenes aim to immerse players in the Broken Planet universe.

Cinematics appear at key story moments, providing context for the conflict without altering gameplay mechanics.

  • Watch each scene for narrative clues.
  • Note visual cues that hint at upcoming objectives.

05 / THE GUIDE

Online Co‑op and PvP

Spacelords supports both cooperative and competitive online play. Players can team up for the 4 vs 1 missions or join separate PvP matches, and cross‑platform multiplayer lets users on different systems play together.

Full controller support, Steam achievements, Steam Cloud, and other Steam features are listed for these online modes.

  • Invite friends for a co‑op run of the campaign.
  • Try PvP to test the effectiveness of your weapon and card choices.
